IRAN: What Did Trump Actually Say?

Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office, US President Donald Trump says on Iran, and his criticism of their response to the US peace proposal, "But the plan is, they cannot have a nuclear weapon, and they didn't say that in their letter". Criticises the Iranian response again, calling it "a piece of garbage".  

• Asked about the ceasefire, Trump says, "I would say the ceasefire is on massive life support, where the doctor walks in and says, 'Sir, your loved one has approximately a 1% chance of living".
• Asked if Iran has agreed to the removal of all enriched uranium, Trump replies "Yeah, they did two days ago. But they changed their mind because they didn't put it in the paper.
• Separately, on his upcoming trip to China on 14-15 May, Trump says he has a good relationship with President Xi Jinping. Says “I respect Xi a lot, hopefully he respects me.”
